Objectives
The scheme aims to modernize and remove obsolescence in the Laboratories /
Workshops / Computing facilities (Libraries are excluded), so as to enhance the
functional efficiency of Technical Institutions for Teaching, Training and Research
purposes.
It also supports new innovations in Class Room and Laboratory / Teaching Technology,
development of Lab Instructional Material and appropriate Technology to ensure that
the practical work and project work to be carried out by students is contemporary and
suited to the needs of the Industry.
The equipment financed under the scheme could be ideally used for upgradation of
equipment in existing laboratories, enhancement of performance parameter
specification of existing equipment, incorporation of latest development in the field and
replacement of old depreciated equipment by modern equipment.
In addition to above major objectives, the equipment installed through
MODROBS can be used for indirect benefit to Faculty / Students through Continuing
Education programmes, Training programmes for local industry and consultancy work.
Eligibility

existence.
For self financing/Institutes:
Maximum 3 proposals per institute per year including sanctioned but not completed
would be considered.
For Govt. /Govt. aided Institutes:
Maximum 10 proposals per institute per year including sanctioned but not completed

project proposal, which should relate to the future development of the academic
strength of the Department.
It may be noted that the concerned Head of the department shall be responsible for
execution and completion of the sanctioned project, followed by submission of all
related documents including the project report.
In case, the Coordinator i.e. the concerned Head of the department of MODROBS
programme joins another Institution, transfer of the project along with him is not

proposed project as well as Diploma level Courses are not eligible for financial assistance under
RPS Scheme.
The Principal Investigator has the primary responsibility for the implementation of the project.
(h)
If the Principal Investigator of RPS programme joins another institution, AICTE will have no
objection to transfer the project if No Objection Certificates are obtained from both the parent
Institute and the Institute where the Principal Investigator intends to join.
In case the Principal Investigator leaves the Institution without transfer of the project or goes
on long leave, the Co-Investigator would be allowed to continue with the project, subject to the
consent of the Principal Investigator in case of long leave and approval of AICTE. All such
requests should be sent to AICTE in advance. Therefore, association of a Co-Investigator in the
project is desirable.
In case the Principal Investigator leaves the Institute and there is no other associated CoInvestigator to carry out the project, the Head of the Department should take the responsibility
for identifying a competent person in the Institution in the relevant subject area and submit
his/her bio-data to the Council for further consideration.
The grant will be utilized strictly for the purpose as specified in the sanction letter. Reappropriation of funds from one head to another is strictly not permitted; Recurring and NonRecurring heads are 15% and 85% of the total grant, unless otherwise recommended by AICTE
experts. The list of equipment decided by the experts is final and there can be no changes later
on.
Once the project is sanctioned, the Council shall not consider any request for additional grant.
(i)
Separate institutional overheads for execution of the project shall not be provided by AICTE.
(j)
Out of the project grant, no funds can be used for going abroad to attend
Conferences/Seminars. However, for presenting a paper in a Seminar/Conference within the
Country, the travel expenses may be met from the recurring component of the grant

institutions under its open-ended proposition. 60 Govt./Govt.-aided engineering
colleges are provided to access to selected electronic resources with financial
support from the AICTE and 1015 engineering colleges and institutions who joined

1. To subscribe electronic resources for the members of the Consortium at
highly discounted rates of subscription and at the best terms and
